Scrawlight Privacy Policy
No data collection
Scrawlight does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data to third-party servers. Everything the app records stays on your device. If you turn on iCloud, it also goes to your own private iCloud container.
iCloud sync
Where Scrawlight offers iCloud sync, it uses Apple CloudKit to move data between your own devices. That data is encrypted and stored in your private CloudKit container, reachable only through your Apple ID. The developer has no access to it.
No third-party SDKs
Scrawlight contains zero third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs. There are no ads, no trackers, and no data brokers involved.
System frameworks
Scrawlight uses Apple system frameworks exclusively. Any permission the app asks for is used only for the feature it is requested for, and is never used to build a profile of you or shared with anyone.
Your choices
You can revoke any permission at any time in system Settings, and delete your data by deleting it in-app or removing the app. Because nothing is held on a server, there is no remote copy left behind.
Children's privacy
Scrawlight is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect information from them. Since the app collects no personal data at all, there is nothing to collect from any user.
Changes
If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new date at the top.
Microphone
The microphone is used only while the Wave effect is on. Audio is analysed in real time, in memory only, to drive the animation — it is never recorded, never written to disk, and never uploaded. Turn Wave off and the microphone is not used at all. If you decline access, Wave falls back to a simulated beat.
Your boards and iCloud
Your boards are stored on this device. With iCloud Sync on, they also sync through your own private iCloud database via Apple CloudKit — that is Apple's service, the data is yours, and the developer cannot see it. Turn sync off in Settings and everything stays on this device. The sync setting takes effect the next time you open the app.
Purchases
Scrawlight Pro is handled entirely by the Apple App Store. The developer never sees or stores your payment details.
App Store privacy label
Data Not Collected. There is no account system, no analytics, no advertising, and no third-party SDK of any kind. Apart from Apple's own iCloud and App Store, no third-party service is involved.
